STOP PICKING PEOPLE WHO TAKE YOU TO THE BRINK
WHAT: What kind of people do you keep attracting?
WHY: You may be looking for someone to provide what’s missing in your own life.
What are you looking for in others? What is missing from your own life?
HOW:
“If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always got”Jessie Potter
Having CLARITY helps you do things differently.
Ingrained habits are scary to part with. They’re uncomfortable, but at some level, they’ve served a purpose.
UNDERSTAND YOU
People with ADHD spend much of their lives people pleasing
Feeling different, they try to fit in, and be accepted
They don’t have a strong sense of who they are, nor do they appreciate their strengths, since the focus is on their ‘disorders’ rather than gifts and talents.
What are your strengths?
How do you people please and neglect yourself?
What can you do to make yourself feel loved?
How can you simply, be you!
UNDERSTAND WHY RELATIONSHIPS ARE IMPORTANT TO YOU
Humans are social beings.
HOW important are your dysfunctional relationships to you? Are they worth selling your soul for? Giving up all sense of self?
People with ADHD have a lifetime of settling for less since they’re told from childhood it’s not ok to be themselves. Life has been about survival, rather than a celebration of who they are.
They are extra sensitive, aware, and emotional, and brim with life, love, and laughter.
When things are great, they’re on fire. When things aren’t so great, they wither.
It’s vital for people with ADHD:
- Remain aware of their own needs in relationships; so that the validation of their partner doesn’t become the most important thing in their life.
- Find their voice. It can be hard to speak up, but it’s essential to find the way.
- Have healthy boundaries.
- Understand, and love themselves.
- Have a wide range of friends, hobbies, interests, and activities outside of the relationship.
ASK YOURSELF:
- Would you have chosen your past relationships, if you felt whole?
- What do you need to nurture in yourself so that going forward, your relationships enhance your life?
- What kind of people have you been attracted to in the past?
- What kind of person have YOU been in your past relationships?
- What kind of person would you like to attract?
- Who are you when you’re at your best in a relationship?
The easiest way not to get hurt is to love yourself enough to turn the reckless away”- Skye Baloo Carnegie
